[I]t is a serious challenge to write what are essentially legal documents in a way that is clear to the non-legalese speaking public. . . . [N]ot only is the choice of words critical, but a document's format and placement of information on the page are equally important elements in getting the message across.
Cynthia Glassman, former SEC Commissioner, November 4, 2005

-
Sally Squires, Nonstop Office: Maybe Its Good for You, THE WASHINGTON POST, January 23, 2007.
